look does anyone else make a frozen pizza knowing you’re going to eat every last calorie this specific evening but you’ll pretend that isn’t the case
i make a frozen pizza knowing i am going to eat every last calorie this specific evening, but i skip the “pretend that isn’t the case” step. i know what i’m about. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I buy frozen pizzas that are the right size for me to eat ll of?
“We will never be the same again. But here’s a little secret for you—no one is ever the same thing again after anything. You are never the same twice, and much of your unhappiness comes from trying to pretend that you are. Accept that you are different each day, and do so joyfully, recognizing it for the gift it is. Work within the desires and goals of the person you are currently, until you aren’t that person anymore, and everything changes once again.”
— (Cecil, Welcome to Night Vale, Episode 75) That is legitimately some of the most helpful advice I’ve ever heard. (via sleuths)
Project done! Despite having found two pearl chokers that I easily could have adapted, I decided to make one from scratch. I didn’t have a multistrand clasp thingie so I improvised one, as you can see, and it worked…moderately well? If I were going to redo this I would probably go to the effort of getting one. The pearls are strung on a nylon coated steel wire, so the necklace is remarkably sturdy. The “blood” on the pearl beads is nail polish–unsurprisingly, I have a LOT of red nail polish–and the drips are strung on fishing line.
I used a long chain for the clasp and added some heavy beads at the end (that metal thing is hollow filigree, and not as heavy as it looks, but still a nice weight) to keep the choker from sliding. With that much weight hanging down at the back, the whole thing stays centered very well. Please ignore my hair, I just jammed it into a bun so it would be out of the way.
It’s surprisingly comfortable to wear! I don’t know what I’m going to be for halloween this year, but this is definitely going to be involved. I bet I could even get away with wearing it to work, if I don’t have any trials that day.
can not stop laughing at those behind the scenes photos bc it looks like sam and bucky at some event and sam dressed up for it like a normal person would while bucky just showed up in his dumbass winter soldier get up, face unwashed, whole arm OUT
sam dressed to the nines spotting bucky across the room: oh my god
bucky seeing sam and just NOW reading the room: oh my god
bucky: you shouldve told me!
sam: i have to Tell you to Not wear 8 backpack straps on your chest, bucky?
bucky:
sam: you need eight backpack straps to Protect your jacket with ONE sleeve, bucky?
i know this will make me sound old and boring but once i’m home for the night i’m home. i don’t like upsetting my plans even when i don’t have any. yes it’s only 8pm but i spent the whole evening believing i’m not going anywhere, i cannot perceive or be perceived right now, try again later
Pointless LOTR headcanon of the day: Frodo & Merry both take after their mothers, meaning Frodo looks more like a Brandybuck than a Baggins and Merry looks more like a Took. This is a constant source of petty contention.
(Pippin meanwhile absolutely takes after his father & is the most Tookish looking)
Merry: call me a Took one more time
Gandalf: if it looks like a Took and acts like a Took it’s a Took
Merry: I will END you
Gandalf is the only nonhobbit in the fellowship who understands the minutiae of Took Vs Brandybuck Vs Baggins rivalry & he delights in it, everyone else baffled
Frodo: look it’s perfectly simple. The Brandybucks don’t like the Tooks because they play golf and think they’re better than everyone because they occasionally go on adventures. The Tooks don’t like the Brandybucks because they live on the wrong side of the river and like boats. And nobody likes the Bagginses because they’re annoying.
Aragorn: are you… Including yourself in that
Frodo: I said what I said.
Frodo: now the Bagginses don’t like the Brandybucks OR the Tooks because they’re highly disrepectable but also richer than they are. And as far as a lot of the Bagginses are concerned I’m a Brandybuck because I grew up in Buckland and I have the Brandybuck Profile
Merry: which just means he’s not pug-ugly
Frodo: quite.
Aragorn: this is all ridiculous. Keep going.
Gandalf: Hm now I wouldn’t say UGLY but… every Baggins I’ve ever met has been perfectly Round or perfectly Square… There is no middle ground.
Gimli, baffled: Frodo isn’t round OR square
Merry: that’s because he has the Brandybuck profile
Gimli: so… Is he a Brandybuck…
Merry: ABSOLUTE not
Frodo: slander!! I’m a Baggins how dare you
Pippin: was your father a Round Baggins or a Square Baggins
Frodo: my father… Was the ROUNDEST Baggins who ever lived… A perfect Sphere of hobbit…
